Here are 10 ChatGPT prompts so powerful and useful, they feel illegal to use:
1. Learn anything from a 20-year expert even if you're clueless

"Act as my personal thought partner. I’ll describe {my idea/problem}, and I want you to question every assumption, point out blind spots, and help me evolve it into something 10x better."

"You're a world-class copywriter. Rewrite this {landing page/sales pitch/email} to convert better. Make it punchy, concise, and persuasive. Use proven frameworks like PAS or AIDA. Here’s the original: {paste it}."
4. Psychoanalyze yourself like a Nobel psychologist would
"Act like a Nobel-winning psychologist. Analyze my behavior pattern: {describe it}. What’s likely causing it? What mindset shifts, habits, or actions would help me overcome it?"
5. Startup roadmap from idea to $10k revenue
"Be my startup mentor. I have this idea: {idea}. Help me refine it, validate the market, uncover monetization options, and outline a roadmap from MVP to first $10k in revenue."
6. Learn hard topics like you're 10 and actually remember them
"Teach me {any complex skill or topic} like I’m 10 years old. Use simple language, metaphors, and examples. After each explanation, quiz me to check my understanding and reinforce learning."
7. Turn rough notes into viral content
"You’re my ghostwriter. Turn this rough bullet outline into a high-impact {LinkedIn post / Twitter thread / Medium article}. Keep it engaging, clear, and tailored to {target audience}. Here’s my outline: {insert}"
8. Life stuck? Get uncomfortable truths + a real plan
"Act like my life coach. I feel stuck because {describe situation}. Ask me 5 uncomfortable questions to uncover the root issue. Then give me a brutally honest action plan to move forward."
9. Investor-style teardown of your startup idea
"You’re a brutally honest investor. Pitch: {insert startup idea}. Tear it apart. What’s flawed? What’s promising? What’s missing? Rate it on market, product, and founder fit. No fluff just real feedback."
10. A 30-day action plan to achieve any goal
"I need a personal strategy. Goal: {your goal}. Give me a 30-day plan. Break it down by week. Include specific actions, milestones, and habits. Make it realistic but challenging enough to grow."
